Hello Lew, Congratulations on getting this great bolo. Here is another place where a envy icon is greatly needed. I and what it looks like many others was watching this one in hopes of being the lucky winner. I had an esnipe bid on it that I thought would be high enough but the bidding went over my max in the last few seconds so it didn't even register. I too am very happy that a forum member was lucky enough to win this. Great score!!!

Nice piece. Hilt looks Luzon to me. Real silver too.

I has the crooked handle and the barong-like blade of a dahon-palay - I like it, good catch!

KuKulzA...What does a dahon palay blade look like? Where is it from? Can you post some pictures of one?
